Abstract

Over the last two years there has been a considerable theoretical research 
effort that would lead to a high precision measurement of the CKM matrix 
element |Vub| from inclusive charmless B decays. Accurate determination of 
|Vub| would allow us to test the Standard Model and search for possible 
deviations from its predictions. In a series of papers, written in 
collaboration with Stefan Bosch, Bjorn Lange and Matthias Neubert, we have 
explored both the perturbative and non perturbative aspects of the 
problem. This effort has culminated in our latest "state-of-art" work on 
the extraction of |Vub|, which the BaBar and Belle experiments have 
already started to implement.
